- Gary Numan , 68, has suggested that the way he met his wife, Gemma O'Neill, 58, when she was a fan might now be considered "illegal".
- O'Neill developed a crush on Numan at age 11 and became a familiar face at his concerts by the early Nineties, eventually striking up a rapport with the musician.
- Numan reconnected with O'Neill after her mother's sudden death, obtaining her phone number through his fan club to check on her.
- Their first date involved a road trip to a radio interview and dinner at a Little Chef, though their serious relationship did not begin until O'Neill was in her twenties.
- Numan also spoke about the devastating loss of his brother, John, who collapsed and died in November last year shortly after attending Numan's show in Leeds.
